Pictures of Paul Wilson
Profile:If the qualities of determination, tenacity and persistence - as well as a considerable degree of natural ability - still count for anything in cricket, then it is clear that Paul 'Blocker' Wilson will continue to enjoy a fruitful career long into the future. While his pedigree has not necessarily been that of the typical first-class cricketer (he decided in 1991 to leave his home city of Newcastle; quit his job as a trainee accountant; and make an unsolicited request for a spot at the Australian Cricket Academy in Adelaide), he displays a level of resolve which renders him a more formidable right arm fast bowler than most. Wilson's thirst for hard work has remained unquestioned ever since that visit to the Academy: he has become an integral member of South Australia's team following his interstate debut in 1993-94 and also graduated to the national side for one Test and 11 one-day international appearances in 1997-98. A player with a strong, bustling action and sound temperament, he bowls a methodically consistent line on and just outside off stump, cuts the ball both ways, and extracts disconcerting bounce at times on account of his imposing frame. He remains one of the most accomplished among the current crop of players at Australian domestic level. (John Polack, August 2001)© 2001 CricInfo Ltd |
